Robert W. “Bob” Van Winkle
April 22, 1943 –– Jan. 19, 2018
Robert Van Winkle, of
Joseph, died at the Memory
Care Village within the Wal-
lowa Valley Senior Living
Center in Enterprise.
Celebration of life will be
11 a.m. Saturday, Jan. 27, at the
Joseph Baptist Church. Recep-
tion following the service in the
fellowship hall of the church.
Bob was born in Eugene,
Ore., the son of Harry “Hap”
and Lorraine Van Winkle. He
was raised in Swiss Home,
Ore., and was a graduate of
Mapleton High School, Class
of 1961.
Bob’s first job was at Erskine Lumber Company in Swiss
Home. For a short time, he worked at the Lane County Bank in
Florence, at Central Lincoln PUD and as a reserve police officer
in Florence, Ore. Bob also owned and operated Rip’s Tire Ser-
vice in Estacada, Ore.
His first love was truck driving, specifically log truck driv-
ing. He enjoyed being in the forest every day, and he was espe-
cially fond of owning and operating his self-loader log truck. Bob
hauled logs to many mills around Oregon.
He worked for years out of Crescent, Ore., hauling into the
mill at Gilchrist and to mills at Oakridge, Vernonia, John Day
and La Pine. Although log truck driving entailed many hours of
driving and keeping his truck repaired, Bob was never happier
than when he was in his log truck. After recovering from an acci-
dent involving his log truck in 1993, Bob went to work in Bend,
Ore., driving aggregate truck for Hap Taylor and Sons as well as
Action Earth Movers.
In 1961, Bob married Sue Calbreathe and they had three chil-
dren, Wayne, Jackie and Jon Dale. They made their home in Flor-
ence and Swiss Home. After their divorce he married Jaquelin
Holm, and they had a daughter, Apryle.
In 1997, Bob Married Shellea Means and they have two
boys, Deni and Tucker. They made their home in Bend and then
moved to Joseph in 2002. Bob and Shellea owned and operated
two restaurants, Sargent’s Café in Bend and Mountain Air Café
in Joseph.
Bob was preceded in death by his parents Harry and Lorraine,
his older brother Bill and son Jon Dale.
He is survived by his wife Shellea, his children Wayne Van
Winkle of Eugene, Jackie Franklin of Eugene, Apryle Van Win-
kle of Gresham, Deni Van Winkle of Redmond, Wash., and
Tucker Van Winkle of Joseph.
Bob and Shellea also have two young ladies they adopted into
their hearts as his own children, Bethany Bertsch of Moscow,
Idaho, and Emelle Henderson of Portland. Bob has 10 grandsons,
two great grandsons and one great granddaughter.
The family suggests the remembrances may be made to Lend-
ing Heart Community Resources, Susan Gilstrap, P.O. Box 64,
